You can go to Graff and buy a diamond that's flawless. You aren't going to be able to buy the same diamond at Fortunoff, but it's still a diamond you can enjoy. If fashion can allow you to have the Chanel mystique through a lipstick, then why shouldn't art allow you to have that through a sweatshirt that says 'Cremaster' on it?

The best dresses are like t-shirts - you just put them on and forget about them.

We don't need fashion to survive, we just desire it so much.

I always say that I'm not the director, I'm part of the team.

Grunge is a hippied romantic version of punk.

Art critics are like every other critic.

The thing I most love and hate about fashion is that it changes all the time. But I don't think I or anyone else can singlehandedly get rid of hooker style. Popular taste isn't great by definition. It's just popular.
